Oklahoma Sooners Football: All the Small Things

If you’ve followed the Oklahoma Sooners this season, it probably surprised you to learn that oddsmakers have installed OU as a 6.5-point favorite over the Oklahoma State Cowboys this weekend.

At 5-5 overall and 2-5 in conference play, the Sooners currently sit near the bottom of the Big 12 standings. Their chances of qualifying for a bowl bid hinge on winning one of their final two matchups. They’re riding a two-game losing streak after a dispiriting defeat at the hands of a West Virginia team teetering on disarray. Meanwhile, their Bedlam rivals are 7-3, and starting quarterback Spencer Sanders returned to the lineup in OSU’s 20-14 win versus the Iowa State Cyclones last weekend.
